Yeah, no.
Me, starting to read the story: “I bet this will be romance novels”
Me, after reading the story: “Yep…romance novels”
My
twothree thoughts are that even the sloppiest of AI slop is likely to be better than most bargain bin romance novels. Their prose has always been shit. They were full of spelling errors, plot holes and copy/paste duping where sometimes it was the same book with only the names of people and towns changed.Second: I hate to admit it, but her method (outlined in the story) is solid. She also combines it with her publishing knowledge in order to best target her “books”.
Third: This is unsustainable, and she knows it, which is why she is pivoting from the “slop slinger” grift to the “you too can be a slop slinger with my app and method” grift.
PS: She’s not an author. She’s a grifter.
I worked in a book store ages ago, romance sells the most by far, often having the largest section.
But there is always way more books that can be sold or read. Even before AI.

That’s a really good point, actually. If this was a good method for writing stories people will actually buy and enjoy, she wouldn’t tell anyone.
That is a good point. She figured out how to “sell shovels” during the “AI gold rush”
I usually don’t like to comment on people’s appearance. I’m in my 40s and I’m no looker. But hell… at least i don’t look like a fucking zombie
what too much slop does to a mfer
The outside matches the inside, I guess
I refuse to spend more time reading slop than someone spent writing it.
Calling her an author is an offense to authors.
Woah woah don’t even use author in same sentence as her please 🥺
Some people will buy anything. I was a “Pet Rock” and “Mood Ring” guy back in the 1970’s. P.T. Barnum was right for sure.
What did PT barnham say about it?
It’s “Barnum”. And he’s probably most famous for saying there’s a sucker born every minute.
Which is apparently not true, which I expect is why such a leading question was posed.
You obviously already know the answer, and are trying to bait them into proving themselves one again. Kinda shitty.
author
Uhhhh… no.
Oh shit. Look what I found.
She will “write” your next romance novel for you, for a couple hundred dollars.
South African “author” defends…
I thought I was reading The Onion. How many times have we said those words to ourselves this year?
She looks like a ghoul. So at least that tracks.
In the vast majority of cases it is entirely unnecessary to refer to someone’s looks to make a point.
humans always fear something they dont understand.
this thread will be no different.
Everyone understands, my guy lol
to think you speak for everyone? then to add some stupid cliche.
im blocking you because morons like you should not be allowed on the internet. it was cooler in the 90s.
That’s fine. You gonna read these books then?
I understand there’s no way she had the time to have and polish 370 book ideas in 20 months. Probably “make me a list with 100 book ideas” rinse and repeat.
She hasn’t even read her own books. She plugs the idea into AI and hires someone to do a one-over of the complete output from what it sounds like in the article
Which raises the question as to how much human goes into that one-over to finish out confusing or incomplete bits.
I’m curious to see one of these train wrecks, but I won’t give her money.
Meanwhile, Stephen King adopted a pen name so he could release more than one book per year.
I understand that she’s not an author.
It’s because we understand that we call foul.
I think you don’t understand what community you’re in.
I doubt you understand the thing you embrace either.
What’s the fucking point?
